Dornier 796 Posted August 22, 2023 Sheffield would have to be very ruthless to fit Tai and Jack into the team and I don't think they have it in them. They stuck with Batchelor to the end which cost them. personally I don't want to see any of the second strings going they all put the effort in 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty sure the minimum 3.00 in the Prem is to avoid clubs putting in 2.00 riders who would be out of their depth Apart from a select couple, realistically isn't every "Rising Star" out of their depth? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

4BM 116 Posted August 22, 2023 I think this scenario would work 1 Jack Holder comes back into team ahead of expiry of Tai Woffinden’s 28 day contract 2 Same time as brining Jack Holder back in ahead of transfer deadline re-declare team removing Adam Ellis (6.00) and either Josh Pickering (6.24) or Lewi Kerr (5.73) that gives 12.24 or 11.73 and replace with Tai Woffinden (7.03) and Connor Mountain (4.51) for 11.54 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ouch 1,197 Posted August 22, 2023 All this talk on the Bates threads about who to kick out as they chase their shiny cups. Bates’ win at all costs mentality came out during last years play offs, trying to circumvent the rule book, so I guess it’s rubbed off on his fans unfortunately. Not including injuries The Aces have made 2 -3 changes to the bottom end of the team over the last 5 years. I prefer that as fans can identify with their speedway family but that’s just my opinion and it’s ok for you all to favour the hire ‘n’ fire approach.

Daniel Smith 5,672 Posted August 22, 2023 The changes required to get Museliak, Woffinden & Holder in would be a redeclaration back to 39.00 with only days left in the transfer window. Almost impossible to achieve. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sheffield would have to build their top 6 to 39.00 unless dropping riders for lower averages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
